For Arjun and Neha

May the foundation of your life grow roots real strong
Protecting you everyday from harm and wrong
I wish you fresher, greener, newer leaves each passing day
Turning life’s chapters to litanies of joyful play
Strong branches your support when you grow old
Abundance of sunshine to save you from cold
I wish you a life joyous and carefree
And all the comfort that’s found in the shade of a tree
